Hispanic Whites: The Rising Majority

The 2010 Census showed a dramatic rise in Hispanic population. Due to this increase, the Census predicts that by 2014, Non-Hispanic Whites will no longer be a majority, rather a simple plurality of the U.S.’s population; this is threatening the supremacy of the white majority. This has led to the appearance of strong presidential candidates like Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz for the 2016 election that are Latino.
